Wow, I remember reading that and wondering the same thing - although at first I thought they meant just the first time. Also, depending on whether it is sized to fit button top/non or protected cells it could leave room for a tight or loose fit, or restrict what batteries could be used. So yea, I agree - too clever by half.

I figured that I could use magnets to take up any slack, but since the 2s2p is only available as 4x1 the scale tipped in favor of the Luminious. You could use 2 x 2s1p and wire them in parallel but they warn against that. Running the light would work, but charging it would be problematic.

I might give it a try if and when they get a 2s2p in 2x2 config.
